I have the following setup: PDC: Samba 3.0.37 on Solaris 10 BDC1: Samba 3.0.37 on Solaris 10 BDC2: Samba 3.4.3 on Solaris 10 Samba 3.0.37 is the bundled version of Samba. Samba 3.4.3 is compiled from source. BDC2 is a recent addition to the network. All machine use LDAP as the backend for everything. They use winbind to handle a domain trust with another domain, but otherwise

I have a samba domain with a Samba 3.4.x PDC (compiled from source on Solaris 10) and two Samba 3.0.x BDC's (Sun-bundled Samba on Solaris 10.) XP clients use DHCP. When on the LAN, DHCP includes WINS server (the WINS server is one of the Samba 3.0.x machines.) We also have a VPN for remote client access for Windows XP machines. XP machines could include home PC's (not in the domain)

Hello everyone, the time for me to use a OpenLDAP server is getting closer ( :( yikes..I'm still scared sorta) , I currently have a Samba PDC with tdbsam with 50 users goes fine, our company will grow (doing our best) in this year by a minimum of 25-30 computers, and I've stuided the TOSHARG , and it says that for every 50 computer a bdc is suggested. The questions : 1.how does

If I configure a samba PDC and then a samba BDC, do I need a machine trust account for the BDC? That is, do I have to run "net rpc join" on the BDC? Or manually create the account for the BDC in LDAP? -- Mariano Absatz - "El Baby" el.baby at gmail.com www.clueless.com.ar

This is probably a frequent problem, but I haven't been able to find an answer. I recently installed samba 2.0.5a on Sun Solaris 2.6 server. There is only one share on the server that I want to be accessible. I have set up the share using the following smb.conf file: (obviously, the specific info has been changed). [global] netbios name = XXX #Server has different name guest account =

I am running Samba 3.5.5 on Solaris 10. I have one machine as a PDC, one as a BDC. If I logon to the domain from a Windows 7 Pro (64-bit) laptop, hibernate the machine, unplug the network cable and wake the machine, I can not unlock the screen. I will get the message "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request." Other users have reported this.

Greetings, I recently promoted a new DC in our existing domain. The existing domain consists of two domain controllers running Samba Version 4.2.0pre1-GIT-b505111 on Ubuntu 12.04 Server. The newly promoted DC is also running Ubuntu 12.04 server, but Samba Version 4.1.8. The promotion was successful and after a few tweaks to DNS, replication is working. It is however failing on some items and

Hello, I'm about to deploy Samba PDC and several BDCs. As far as I understand Samba and domain logons, this means that a user will be able to log onto any server, with his workstation choosing a domain controller that is probably the closest/fastest etc. one. As a consequence, this also means, that on each server there has to be a copy of a profile of a given user, right? If so, how can

Hi, I think that someone has the solution for my problem! ;) After i did the upgrade process in a samba server, from debian squeeze to wheezy, the new samba version (3.6.6) is not working. Searching on web, there are many causes for this error, and i dont know what is mine. I can't connect with smbclient -L host -U ldapuser, that give me error "session setup failed:

Hi All, I'm using samba 2.0 on Solaris 5.5.1 with the smb.conf that is included. I want to allow a user called admin_auto to connect to some shares to scan them for viruses from an nt workstation. I don't want any other user to be able to use the shares, and I've made them not browseable. My problem is that anyone can connect to the share without a password and use it. They just

Samba List - Like most people new to Samba, I'm having the most trouble setting up permissions. First of all, let me get this straight: if you use security = domain, you do not need to set up individual users on the Linux box (in an NT domain), correct? I want all users to be able to read the files in LSSNET, and only specific users allowed to write to it. If the folder is 775 and the

You can remember this. If you join a server, that make sure that that servers "hostname" gets an A and PTR record. The PTR is most important. Now if you creat a CNAME now, through PTR it knows its "original" hostname And kerberos works, this is how i do all my setups. As example. REALM : INTERNAL.EXAMPLE.COM FQDN : test-dc1.internal.example.com Hostname: test-dc1 SPN

Hi all, i have a setup where by there is a PDC thats authenticating users through ldap. i have several other BDCs' that are doing the replication of the main server. am trying to setup the users to be authenticated by the BDC but am not able to. Any suggestions will be quite helpful Regards kevin

Hi All, I have a domain setup soon to go into production. We have 3 buildings, each containing a fileserver for that buildings users (home drives/share drives). I've been using the smbldap-tools on the PDC, which is all working fine. Is it possible to join another server to the domain, also using the smbldap-tools, with a different config, that will setup a users home drive, etc on

Good Morning I am looking to download the Samba 3.0.23d binary for Solaris. When I go to the area that is set up for binaries, there is nothing under the Sparc folder. Is there another place I can get the binary? Thanks in advance for your help. Barb Fair Lockheed Martin Valley Forge, PA 610-531-5442

Dear R-Users, I need a very fast and reliable database solution so I try to serialize a data.frame (to binary data) and to store this data to an SQLite database. This is what I tried to do: library(RSQLite) con <- dbDriver("SQLite") db <- dbConnect(con, "test") dbSendQuery(db, 'CREATE TABLE frames("simID" INT, "data" BLOB)') data.bin <-

I am trying to get my linux box running slackware with kernel 2.0.36 and samba 2.0.0 (full version not BETA) to join our NT domain. I first added to computer to the domain. Then I typed this (computer and domain names altered for protection): linux_computer:/usr/local/samba/bin# smbpasswd -j MY_DOMAIN -r MY_PDC Where linux_computer is the linux computer (like you needed that) MY_DOMAIN is the

People, some of the machines of my network aren't been listed in (Windows Explorer - Network icon). I made a research and I found the following: - try to activate some services: SSDP Discovery; UPnP Device Host; Function Discovery Resource Publication. Note: this situation happens with machines that were joined to the domain and with others that weren't added to
